Annual Meeting

Preconference Workshop on Esssentialism

Friday June 25

Welcome!

Welcome to the 47th annual (and inaugural online!) meeting of the Society for Philosophy and Psychology!

We are very excited to share this year’s outstanding program with you.

This conference is made possible by generous support from Princeton University's Department of Psychology Langfeld Fund & the Department of

Philosophy. We thank them for their support and generosity.

We are also grateful to everyone who refereed papers for the conference and who volunteered their time to ensure that we have an excellent program this year. We are

particularly grateful to the members of our two William James Prize committees. We would also like to thank Alexa Sacchi, the architect of the conference space in Gather.town.

Finally, we extend the utmost gratitude to Larisa Heiphetz and Eric Mandelbaum, who put together an outstanding program for the 2020 conference prior to it being postponed due to COVID-19. We have held over their excellent program here, and extended it to include

new submissions from 2021.

We hope that you have a productive and stimulating meeting. We will look forward to seeing you again next year for the 48th annual meeting of the SPP!

Registration

Registration for the pre-conference and conference can be completed online at https://tinyurl.com/SPP2021Registration.The registration deadline is Sunday June 20.

If you register after this date, there will be some delay between your registration and your access to the Gather.town site,as we will need to add latecomers manually. So please help us out by registering ASAP!

Locations & Times ★ All conference times are listed in EDT ★

All conference events will take place in Gather.town. The URL for the conference will be sent to you by email before theconference. For security purposes, you must log in to the conference using the email address you registered with.

Talks will be located in rooms within Gather, very similar to the setup at an in-person conference. Each talk lists anassociated room. Once you enter the room, you will see an icon for the talk, which opens a link to a Zoom room. Werequest that audience members mute themselves during talks, except to ask questions during the Q&A.

Posters will be available for viewing at any time throughout the conference, but will only be “staffed” during the postersessions. This means you may browse posters at your convenience, and return during poster sessions to chat withpresenters.

The main lobby space will serve as a “lounge” area throughout the entirety of the conference, where you may chat withothers in an informal environment. There is also a beach area just outside – don’t forget the sunscreen!
